Quail was fantastic and the Brussels sprouts may be the best in the DMV 👀

This was our first time and Miguel, the manager and Chris, our server, took fantastic care of us! We ate on the terrace with the heaters and it was perfect on a brisk night. The restaurant has a really fun vibe but best of all the food was delicious especially the swordfish special! We were pleased there were so many gluten-free options. We will definitely be back.

I go here every time I am in DC for brunch, it’s my favorite place for brunch. Always have a great food experience, I highly recommend the Voodoo Coolers! Service, food always the best. It gets very busy so other people must think the same.

Got there a few minutes late for our reservation and they were very accommodating about getting us seated quickly. Delish food, hip vibe, and terrific service by Jose G. A great place to get a meal before (or after) a show at the Anthem, so we'll be back!

First time at this restaurant. I found the experience to be nice and relaxing. The service was good, and my meal, Cajun Pasta, was very tasty and well plated. The restaurant is a chain, and this location is in a strip mall, so there's plenty of parking.
